Reform Movement: Demolishing Barriers Between Computer Science and Computer Engineering in Purdue University

Introduction
Synergy Between Computer Engineering and Computer Science
Engineering is the ‘practice of safe and economic application of scientific laws’. Science is a ‘systematic observation of natural events in order to formulate laws.’ The field of engineering became a separate discipline from science in the nineteenth century.
Computer science, like engineering, is a field of applied science. Unlike science, it has a shorter-term view. Computer science aims to determine what will work, and not to discover fundamental laws of nature. It is akin to engineering in its emphasis on automation. Therefore, computer science is more aligned to engineering than to ...

This notwithstanding, the production can only be owned by the rich because it is capital intensive. The quality of the products is still unpredictable because all products are essentially prototypes.
